Lawrence Taylor is LT for life. Biggest impact player in modern times... I can't understand why his title has been conveniently been swept under the rug and taken by someone else - pretty lame.

For those of you that had the opportunity to see LT play in his prime, I think you would agree. Just hearing "LT" has a certain ring about it, and it was always associated with that one iconic player.

Madden mentions it occasionally, and Chris Berman too, but that's about it. I'm sure this subject has been broached before, but I generally don't follow these sites.

My user name gives me away as a 'Hawks fan - just to show that I'm "fair and balanced", I would swap our Shaun for your current LT in a heartbeat, at least for now. Hopefully I'll want to take that back at the end of the season.

Who gives a rats A$$ what you think! The reason the Seahawks left the AFC West was they couldn’t win a game within the Division. So once they moved to the NFC, now they are a power house that tells us how weak the NFC is! Take your weak crap and shove it!

Basically no one has had a problem with LT being used as LT's nickname. Not LT1 (or LT D, Taylor), not LT, not Berman, not anyone in the media and almost no fans minus some jabroni Giants fans longing for the good ol days and with sore pride about the 2004 deal. Seahawk's raises a fuss about nothing and makes arguments by making no argument. Hence, he goes to the *** clown thread to stew in his own sea-hawk-brass-rail-loving-pot

Lawrence Taylor was a great player, but also a crackhead. So, LT (Tomlinson) shouldn't be allowed to use his initials because are the same as a crackhead? Go smoke another blunt jackass, come back you have something a little more original than defending a crackhead.

The LT vs. LT was settled, by the original LT. You claiming it "ain't right" is complete bullshit. Tell the original LT what you said and he'd laugh in your face.

As for Kareem the RB, his PARENTS gave him that name. The original Kareen SUED the RB.

Get your facts straight next time.

Actually, you should do your research, the Abdul-Jabbar the RB was born Sharmon Shah and changed his name to Karim Abdul-Jabbar in 1994/1995. He changed his name again after the "big" Kareem sued to Abdul-Karim al-Jabbar. Here's the source -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdul-Karim_al-Jabbar.
